Finishing up on the interior remodel and it's looking really nice..The exterior is all vinyl and has rock chips, and weed whacker marks all over the place..

What I learned is the larger the project the more political it gets between departments and branches of government all having their hand in the cookie jar trying to pick out the biggest one with the most chocolate chips.............. : )The land is the harder part and getting anchors signed and financing in place to take down the parcels.

Many syndicators using bridge haven't experienced a time when the chips were down, so this is a lesson they have yet to learn.Your suggestion that you'd prefer 65% leverage, fixed rate debt, as a tool to de-risk, I half agree with.

You can find more about that here: https://www.sandiegocounty.gov...San Diego is trying to up-zone neighborhoods to fit higher density to chip away at the supply/demand imbalance for housing, their effort results in "Complete Communities" which you can learn more via this website: https://www.sandiego.gov/compl...

No help or chipping-in by the state.
